Fletch might decide to retire after this season or next. LB is going to be a top need for us ASAP. We have already given up a lot for both McNabb and Brown. I like the FA moves, in that they have been smart and have addressed needs, but we still are almost exclusively using FA to build a team.

Yep you are right in that LB is a big need for this team moving forward as well as DL next years draft. We have alot of age and people playing out of position in both of those positions.


One of the problems I have with drafting WR is we never draft them well at all.

Now maybe that will change with MS and BA in charge, but drafting WR is a gamble in my opinion. I like grabbing proven guys from FA when it comes to this position.
